FP Foresight Diversified Real Assets
Overview
The FP Foresight Diversified Real Assets strategy seeks growth from a combination of income and capital appreciation by investing in listed owners, operators and developers of real assets across infrastructure, renewables, real estate, communications, energy and commodities.
Real assets occupy a distinctive place in a diversified portfolio. Companies that own and operate essential physical infrastructure tend to generate stable, long-duration cash flows with lower sensitivity to economic cycles than broader equities and lower sensitivity to interest rate movements than traditional fixed income.
The FP Foresight Diversified Real Assets Fund combines these characteristics in a single, unconstrained vehicle, providing genuine diversification across multiple real asset sub-sectors and geographies.
Unlike strategies constrained to a single asset class or sector, the fund invests across equities, fixed income and commodities within the real assets universe. This flexibility allows the portfolio to be positioned across uncertain macroeconomic environments, rotating between sub-sectors as valuations and conditions evolve.
Since inception, the fund has demonstrated a more stable return profile and greater resilience during market downturns relative to equities, while providing lower interest rate sensitivity than traditional fixed income. That combination makes it a distinctive building block for multi-asset portfolios seeking real asset exposure without concentration in any single sector.
Why invest in the FP Foresight Diversified Real Assets Fund?
- Genuine diversification – An unconstrained mandate spanning infrastructure, renewables, real estate, communications, energy and commodities provides broad real asset exposure within a single fund, reducing concentration risk.
- Defensive return profile – Since inception, the fund has demonstrated greater resilience during market downturns than broader equities, reflecting the stable, long-duration cash flow characteristics of its underlying holdings.
- Interest rate resilience – A diversified approach across real asset sub-sectors provides lower sensitivity to interest rate movements than traditional fixed income, offering a more balanced risk profile.
- Flexibility across cycles – The absence of single-sector constraints gives the portfolio management team the flexibility to allocate where value and income potential are greatest as macroeconomic conditions evolve.
- Long-term track record – Launched in 2014, the fund has been tested across multiple market environments, demonstrating consistent delivery of its objective of income and capital growth.
The FP Foresight Diversified Real Assets Fund could be suitable for investors seeking a diversified real asset allocation within a multi-asset portfolio, or as a defensive complement to broader equity or fixed income exposure.
